CHAPTER XXXI

"Xiaoyu, are you sure he said that he is proposing?!"
Fang Zhuqing slapped the table with both hands, his face was flushed in anxiety, and the two little cheeks were round because of excitement, and people almost jumped up from their seats.
"Well, I also invited a matchmaker, it shouldn't be wrong," Xiaoyu was also shocked, and a little worried about Fang Zhuqing, Miss likes the shopkeeper Han, why did someone come to propose marriage at this time! Hesitated for a moment before then speaking, "What else did that person say, I have admired Miss for a long time, and since I said goodbye to Duolu Town, I have been worried in my heart..."
What a farewell to the town of Doro... The more Fang Zhuqing listened, the more confused she felt, the last time she went to Duolu Town, wasn't that three months ago?
By the way, three months ago, she did go to Fu Yin's drink party because she was bored, and she was finally kicked out!
The one who came to propose marriage today wouldn't be the Qiao Gongzi who came out of the restaurant to find her that day, right? Fang Zhuqing remembered it very clearly, because he had been teased by Wan Wan and Ah Xun for a long time.
Fang Yue was silent on the side with a calm face, thinking that it was some trick that Fu Yin was playing while he was not there, until he heard Xiaoyu's last sentence, he suddenly realized, raised his eyes and glanced at Fang Zhuqing, and gently shook the teacup in his hand, his tone couldn't tell whether it was helplessness or blame,
"Tell me yourself, what good deeds did you do when you went to Duolu Town three months ago, and you provoked the people of Shangfu Yin. β
"I... I didn't do anything! Big brother, you can't believe him!"
Fang Zhuqing shook his head anxiously, scolded Qiao Anyin hundreds of times in his heart, guessing that this person was not having a problem with his brain, he was obviously looking for trouble that day, he didn't resent himself for not saying it, he even came to propose! I really don't know what he thinks! Now I am afraid that Fang Yue will impulsively agree to this marriage, Fang Zhuqing can only insist that she doesn't know Qiao Anyin, she doesn't believe that her eldest brother can force her to marry,
"I will never agree to this marriage!"
The mouth is quite tight, but now I know that I am afraid, how can I not think about the consequences when I am naughty outside, Fang Yue sighed and shook his head, his fingers slapped rhythmically on the table, seeing that Fang Zhuqing refused to say anything, he had to give up, and silently sighed in his heart that Zhuqing was also a good skill, and he actually asked Fu Yin's little son to come to the door to propose marriage.
"I can't agree to this family affair, Fu Yin has an ambiguous relationship with Yunyang, and secretly I don't know how many things I have done to damage Tianke, and now I dare to come to propose marriage, it's really a big face!
Poor Qiao Anyin, who still didn't know that he had been blacklisted by the Fang family brothers and sisters, was still waiting outside to see Fang Zhuqing.
"But what?" finally got a satisfactory answer, Fang Yue's words made Fang Zhuqing's heart rise again, his eyes opened wide, and he didn't even dare to breathe.
"It's a good opportunity. Fang Yue seemed to think of something, his eyes flashed with a hint of essence, and a sly smile appeared on his face, Fang Zhuqing's heart seeped panic, every time her eldest brother showed this smile, it was someone who was going to be unlucky, "Twenty-eight years old, but you can get married." β
"Big brother, you... I won't marry!" Fang Zhuqing was anxious, this is a good thing, why did he change his hexagram again!
"Who said you should marry the one out there, I mean... Han Jun, how's that?"
Fang Yue's meaning was obvious, after observing a few days ago, he naturally saw that although the relationship between Han Jun and Zhuqing was ambiguous, Zhuqing was taking the initiative every step of the way, Han Jun's attitude was vague, and he really couldn't see whether she intended to be with Zhuqing.
Not to mention that Zhuqing is a woman, or a young lady who has not come out of the cabinet, it is already rare to take such an initiative, this time you can indeed use the matter of proposing marriage to stimulate Han Jun and see her reaction, if she really has no affection for Zhuqing, let her see clearly, and she doesn't have to be in unrequited love like now.
Thinking about it, this is the first time that his stupid sister likes someone like this, and if she is really rejected, she must be sad for a while.
Fang Yue silently calculated in his heart, since he was the person Zhuqing fancied, his eldest brother would definitely "abduct" the person for her, no matter what method was used, when the two got married, raw rice was cooked and matured, were you afraid that she would not be able to cultivate feelings?
Thinking that his wishful thinking was good, Fang Yue was quite proud in his heart, but he didn't hear a response for a long time, he looked up at the opposite side, only to see Fang Zhuqing lower his head slightly, and his originally serious little face suddenly restrained Yan SΓΉ, showing some wonderful yearning, and then, his cheeks turned red.
"Big brother, you... What do you want to do?"
"Naturally, I want to find a good husband for you, don't you have a crush on Han Jun? The eldest brother is also very satisfied with her, this time she can just use the matter of proposing marriage to test it, if she is also interested and asks her to propose marriage, she just refuses the one outside. β
Fang Yue said it as a matter of course, and guessed all of Han Jun's reactions in his heart, if she was interested in Zhuqing, it would be the best, if she was unintentional... Then don't blame him for using some special methods, after all, in this Duofu Town, he Fang Yue, as the head of the first restaurant Tianke, still has some ability.
"This, how is this going to be tempted?"
Fang Zhuqing was a little embarrassed, the square handkerchief in his hand was pinched and unformed, and he asked in a low voice with a red face.
After these days of getting along, her relationship with Han Jun has indeed gone further than before, but Fang Zhuqing's heart is mixed, happy is that Han Jun is interested in her, and worried about how much "meaning" there is but it is not clear, if this "intention" is less than one thousandth of her to Han Jun, what is the use!
After all, she actually wanted to know what kind of attitude Han Jun had now, obviously she liked herself, but she just refused to say it!
Fang Yue had already thought of a perfect plan in his heart, and he was determined to promote the marriage between Zhuqing and Han Jun, so that she could marry Langjun as she wished, and she could also fulfill the last wish of the old father of the Fang family.
"Just leave this to the eldest brother, you just wait at home these days, don't go out, I'm worried that Fu Yin is looking for trouble." β
"Hmm. β
Fang Zhuqing didn't know what Fang Yue was planning to do, so he nodded obediently, but when he wanted to tell Han Jun about Qiao Anyin's marriage, he didn't stop it at the moment.
The brother and sister had their own thoughts in the backyard, but Qiao Anyin in the lobby was a stomach, no matter how he and the matchmaker persuaded him, Uncle Wen refused to ask Fang Zhuqing to come out, saying that he was unwell and not suitable to see guests, and even the proposal was politely refused, asking him to wait for Fang Yue to come back.
Before he came, he also inquired, Fang Yue went to the imperial city this time, and he couldn't come back at all in ten days and half a month, could it be that he could only endure not seeing Zhu Qing during this time!
The matchmaker stood aside and sweated urgently, took out a handkerchief and wiped it on her face, it was useless to say all the good things, so she could only shake her head at Qiao Anyin secretly, indicating that she had no choice.
"Young Master Qiao, our young master is not here in this matter, we don't dare to call the shots, please go back!"
A lean old man with all white hair stopped in front of Qiao Anyin, for fear that he would rush in while he was not paying attention.
"Even if Young Master Fang is not here, we should let Miss Fang come out to meet our Young Master Qiao, in case Miss agrees!"
The matchmaker was still standing on the sidelines, aggressive.
"Okay, since Uncle Wen has said so, I will leave for the time being today, I have found a house not far from the house, and I will come to Miss Fang in a few days, but I must be allowed to see her. β
Xu wanted to leave a good impression, Qiao Anyin's temper was not ordinarily good, Uncle Wen didn't refute anything, nodded again and again, and secretly made up his mind to stay in the town until the day Fang Yue came back, and said that this family affair was-
γ2γ
"Yiren Sijun doesn't know~"
"Lang follows the moon to the end of the world~"
Jun Wine Cellar, Han Jun is taking Xiao Si to develop new wine, clear water, rose dew, Tianyan fragrance dew, flower leaf mushroom... All kinds of materials were neatly placed on the table, and Han Jun was holding a small wine jar in his hand, measuring how much the weight of various materials should be, and occasionally glanced at the wine jar, his expression was extremely focused.
The wine-making equipment outside is not as simple as in the palace, it is really too simple, even the most basic wine quantum can not be found, it is difficult for Han Jun to determine the proportion of various materials, all of them have to rely on feelings, and the difficulty is much greater, Han Jun frowned, his hand trembled, and the rose dew was sprinkled with two more drops.
Failed again.
Brewing wine is indeed a painstaking thing, especially the development of new wine, I can't count how many times I have failed, Han Jun sighed and put down the wine jar in his hand, his appearance was tired, but he didn't see her depressed.
Xiao Si watched seriously from the sidelines, humming an unknown tune in his mouth, and suddenly saw Han Jun stop, and hurriedly asked,
"Shopkeeper, how's it going?
Seeing that the young man was more nervous than himself, Han Jun couldn't help but laugh out loud, how could it be said that the brewing was successful?
"Still not good enough,"
Han Jun shook his head and walked out with Xiao Si, feeling a little strange in his heart that Fang Zhuqing hadn't come to look for him in the past few days, wasn't he locked up by Brother Fang again? Thinking of this happy brother and sister, his mood seemed to be better.
"By the way, what tune did you hum just now? Yiren Sijunjun doesn't know, Lang follows the moon to the end of the world~ The words are good, but this is sung by a woman who misses her lover. β
When Xiao Si heard Han Jun's words, he didn't feel ashamed, but laughed twice and explained to her,
"Don't laugh at me, the little sister in the family has been humming a lot these days, and I have learned it by listening to it. β
"Tsk, little sister, this is Sichun. β
Love should be the most beautiful thing in the world for them.
Han Jun walked towards the door, looking at the sparse crowd at the door, with a smile on her face, somehow, she remembered Fang Zhuqing again.
Maybe the little girl is hiding somewhere and secretly singing this song.
The master and servant were standing quietly at the door of the winery, although the business was bleak, but their faces were leisurely tight, and they were not worried at all.
β¦β¦
The Fang family on East Street ushered in another uninvited guest today, Qiao Anyin, who is still unrelenting, actually brought the same group of people to propose marriage again for several days!
Fang Yue was annoyed by him, and sent Uncle Wen to deal with it again and again, but he simply hid in the flower garden and couldn't come out, but he couldn't help laughing in his heart, this little boy Qiao was still an infatuated species, and he raised his eyebrows and found that the opportunity had come.
With a step on his thighs, Fang Yue stepped out of the flower garden in a few steps, and went straight to Fang Zhuqing's room, and before he entered her small courtyard, he saw Xiao Yu standing upright, waiting at the door of the room.
Zhu Qing has been obedient these days, staying quietly in the room and not knowing what he is doing, Fang Yue glanced into the room through the window, only to see Fang Zhuqing bowing his head, bowing his body, holding a needle and thread in one hand, and holding a sachet in one hand, I don't know what he is embroidering, his face is distressed, it seems that he is embroidering wrong, he seems to be angry and throws the sachet on the table, and after a while, he picks it up and re-embroiders it with a sad face.
Fang Yue saw this scene in his eyes, and secretly said in his heart, the power of love is so great, it can make a person change so far, Zhuqing has never touched these before, and then next, is it time to learn to cook?
Just thinking like this, Fang Yue felt incredible in his heart.
If someone is willing to make such a change for him in the future, he will be moved.
"Ahem. β
Standing at the door of the small courtyard and coughing lightly, Xiao Yu stretched out his head and looked out, and saw Fang Yue at a glance, thinking that he was here to find Fang Zhuqing, and was about to knock on the door to call someone, but when he saw him waving his hand, he realized that he slowed down his steps and walked over.
"What is the young lady embroidering in the room these days?
"Back to the eldest young master, the young lady said that the shopkeeper Han often has to go to Xiyuan to find flowers, and the sachets are used to hold flowers, and I want to embroider one for her personally. β
Thinking of Fang Zhuqing's appearance when she asked her to teach her embroidery, Xiaoyu still couldn't believe it until now.
"Sure enough," Fang Yue understood, and couldn't tell what it felt like in his heart, his sister, who had been raised for more than ten years, was now just thinking about Han Jun in his heart, "I see that Zhuqing doesn't need someone to serve him, you go out to do something for me." β
Xiaoyu nodded ignorantly, waiting for him to continue.
"You go to Jun Liquor Shop to find Han Jun, just say - the people of Fu Yin brought people to the Fang family to find trouble, by the way, don't tell SΓΉ Zhuqing about this. βββ
γ3γ
Han Jun was resting at the door with Xiao Si, only to see a familiar figure in the distance rushing towards Jun Liquor Workshop, only to find that it was Xiao Yu with an anxious face, it seemed that something big had happened, Han Jun knew Xiao Yu and knew that she was Zhuqing's personal maid, and he was a little nervous when he saw her appearance, so he hurriedly welcomed people in.
Xiao Yu took a breath and said the words she had prepared in advance, but she was secretly observing Han Jun's reaction.
"What??Fu Yin's people went to the Fang family to find trouble?!"
Han Jun's heart was in a hurry, and even his tone became anxious, his two eyebrows frowned, the worry in his eyes was self-evident, and cold sweat actually broke out in his palm, and he didn't have time to investigate the loopholes in Xiaoyu's words.
"Well, I brought a lot of people, and it was inconvenient for the young master to come forward, so I asked the slave maid to come to the shopkeeper Han. β
"Takekiyo... Is she alright?"
It is inconvenient for Brother Fang to come forward, and only Zhuqing can take care of things, thinking of her straightforward temperament, Han Jun only feels bad.
"Miss was stopped in the room by us... You might as well go and see for yourself!"
"Well, I hope nothing happens. β
Han Jun briefly told Xiao Si a few words, asked him to guard the wine shop and followed Xiao Yu to Fang's house, all the way to ask non-stop, wondering what was going on, but Xiao Yu was stumped, I didn't know how to prevaricate the past, so I had to make up two sentences to fool the past, looking forward to going to Fang's house earlier.
Fang Yue deliberately wanted Han Jun to know about the Qiao family's marriage proposal, and specially instructed Xiaoyu to take her in the lobby, so when Han Jun saw the bride price full of several boxes and more than a dozen subordinates, he finally reacted.
Isn't this here to propose?
Somehow, she was inexplicably angry in her heart, as if she was grabbed, her heart was uncomfortable, her lips were pursed tightly, she couldn't say a word, and she just wanted to throw them all out when she looked at the bride price.
As smart as her, how could she not guess what Fang Yue meant.
"Are you here to propose?"
Han Jun was a little distracted, he didn't know what he was thinking, Xiao Yu saw her stop, stood by and watched, and was anxious, and said in her heart If you like Miss, just say it! If you don't say it, it's too late! But after waiting for a long time, Han Jun still didn't say anything.
"Shopkeeper Han, let's go in. β
Consciousness drifted somewhere, Han Jun followed behind Xiao Yu, in a trance all the way, until he saw Fang Yue's eyes, and only then did he regain a trace of clarity.
"Brother Fang, are the people from Fu Yin here to propose marriage today?"
"That's right. Fang Yue nodded, his face solemn.
"What did Brother Fang do when he deceived me? Shouldn't this matter be decided by Zhu Qing?" Han Jun couldn't say anything in her heart, she knew that the Fang family needed to give an answer by herself, and she couldn't drag Zhu Qing anymore.
The picture of getting along with Zhuqing in the past came to mind, Han Jun was also uncomfortable, a breath of depression welled up in her heart, and her steps were shaking, why didn't she want to come to Fang's house to propose marriage openly, but it was a pity that she was a woman, if Brother Fang and Zhuqing knew, I am afraid it would be too late to hide from herself, right?
She refused, but I think this family affair is good, the Qiao family made a condition, if this family affair is completed, she is willing to help Tianke expose Yunyang's evil deeds, which is very good for the restaurant. β
Fang Yue couldn't hear the answer he wanted, seeing that Han Jun still looked indifferent, he didn't seem to care at all, and he didn't care about anything and began to make things up, for the sake of Fang Zhuqing, he would rather say that he was a villain of interests.
"How can this work!" Han Jun was dumbfounded, his face was full of disbelief, how did Brother Fang become this kind of person who sacrificed his sister's marriage for the sake of profit!
"Why not? Zhuqing is sixteen this year, and it is indeed time to get married, this young master of the Qiao family is a talent, and Zhuqing is also a good candidate in terms of identity?"
"Zhu Qing refuses, how can he agree to this family matter?!" Han Jun was even more angry in his heart, his delicate face sank completely, and his eyes looking at Fang Yue also changed completely.
What kind of family affection, after all, it still can't be worth the benefits!
"Naturally, this matter can't just look at Zhuqing's meaning" Fang Yue secretly complained in his heart, Han Jun looked at him with disdain, he was a little ashamed, this time he had completely become a bad person.
"It's really pitiful for Zhuqing!"
Han Jun left directly through the back door angrily after dropping such a sentence, and Ren Fangyue didn't look back no matter how she was in place.
There's a play!
Fang Yue gently turned the jade wrench on his thumb, and a rather interesting smile appeared on his face, what was Han Jun afraid of? This reaction was clearly not wanting Zhuqing to marry into the Qiao family, but he refused to open his mouth to express his intentions, it was really strange.
Why don't you let him help the two of you-
γ4γ
Let's say that Han Jun was really angry this time, not to mention that someone came to Fang's house to propose marriage, which made her heart extremely stuffed, Fang Yue's attitude towards family affairs made her angry, she also thought about it before, she and Zhuqing were inseparable, and she didn't think about the future of the two, she just wanted to cherish the time in front of her, who knew that someone would come to propose marriage now! If the person proposing marriage is someone Zhuqing likes, she can also withdraw with peace of mind, and now this family affair is obviously for profit!
She also understood what Fang Yue meant today, hoping that she could confess her heart and be with Zhuqing, but as soon as she thought of her true identity, a towering boulder seemed to appear under Han Jun's feet, stopping her in place, and she couldn't take a step.
How did things get to where they are?
After being entangled and tortured by the marriage proposal for several days, Han Jun's heart couldn't calm down, blaming himself and Fang Yue, wanting to know how the Fang family was now, and feeling that she was not qualified to inquire about this matter, it really made her upset and irritable, and she was often distracted from developing new wine, and even Xiao Si found out,
"Shopkeeper, what's wrong with you these days? Since you went to the Fang family, you have been a little different, but what's the matter?"
"I'm fine," Han Jun shook his head, picked up a white porcelain bottle on the table and opened it, and was about to pour it into the wine jar without looking, but fortunately was stopped by Xiao Si's voice,
"Shopkeeper, this is barley powder, not rose dew, don't be wrong. β
It was even impossible to distinguish between barley powder and rose dew, this is still called nothing, Xiao Si secretly complained in his heart, he didn't know what was going on, he didn't dare to continue to ask seeing that Han Jun was in a bad mood, he turned around and went to the cabinet to find rose dew for her, and after a long time, he still didn't find it, didn't the shopkeeper buy a lot last time? Why is a bottle missing?
"The rose dew in the store is gone, and I still have a few bottles left in my little yard, which are on the table in the room, and you can go and get them for me." β
Putting down all the materials in his hand, Han Jun stretched out his hand to stroke his forehead, only to feel tired, and wanted to stay by himself for a while, so he sent Xiao Si out to get something.
At the same time, dozens of master carpenters invited by Fang Yue were carrying tools to Han Jun's small courtyard, and as soon as the one who took the lead entered the courtyard, he took out the drawings that Fang Yue had given him in advance, and after studying for a while, he directly began to assign tasks.
"You two, go and tear down the east wall. β
"For the rest, tear down the two rooms. β
The master who spoke stretched out his hand and pointed, it was the two small rooms on the right that were not inhabited, and the carpenters who got the instructions were not ambiguous, and they picked up their hoes and began to bang their hands, chatting while dismantling and returning them, guessing which family this was to provoke the Fang family, and they were going to tear down the entire courtyard, leaving only one room.
When the group was in full swing, Xiao Si was still far away when he was startled by the sound of demolishing the house, and ran over after a few steps of stepping into the yard, and roared directly into the yard.
"What are you doing in broad daylight! Who told you to demolish the house?"
The east wall has been demolished cleanly, and the other two rooms have not yet been demolished.
Xiao Si was about to cry, sympathizing with Han Jun in his heart for how he was so unlucky, he came to Duofu Town alone, opened a wine shop and almost went out of business, and now he is causing some evil person, and he actually demolished her house!
What a world!
"Who are you? We are entrusted to demolish the house, and you can't control it!"
The master who took the lead was also a temper, and he came directly to Xiao Si to confront him, and he spoke with confidence, and he didn't feel ashamed of demolishing people's houses at all.
"Okay! You still have a reason to demolish people's houses! Tell me, who asked you to come! I'm going to talk to our shopkeeper!"
"Then sue you, it was the eldest lady of the Fang family who asked us to come, if you know, hurry up and leave, don't hinder us." β
After the man finished speaking, he didn't bother to take care of Xiao Si anymore, and continued to direct the others to work, and Xiao Si on the side was shocked by his words, and said to himself, Miss Fang, how is this possible? Isn't her relationship with the shopkeeper very good? She often comes to the wine shop
No matter, go to the shopkeeper first!
Another gust of wind was blowing, and Xiao Si had long forgotten the task of coming to the courtyard, and even forgot to take the rose dew and left directly, worried that the house would be demolished if the shopkeeper didn't come again-
Han Jun didn't be quiet for a moment, when he saw Xiao Si rushing in from outside, his face was panicked, and when he saw that he didn't have anything in his hand, he felt a little strange in his heart, and was about to ask, when he heard Xiao Si burst out with a shout,
"Shopkeeper, the east wall has been demolished!"
